Sky Watcher

 Sky Watcher 


Sky watcher, yearning, seeks solace afar 

Beyond the sky's bounds, inscribes his memoir


Hoping for rain, for flames that inspire,

With thoughts of youth and cherished desire.


Promised the world, yet disaffected he feels,

Recalling spilled blood and life's turning wheels.


Screams for freedom echo, unheard, they fade,

Watcher, behind despair's bars, his gaze stayed.


Toward bright constellations, he fixes his sight,

Stars die swiftly, if unexplored in the night.


Part 2 


The watcher's heart, a tempestuous sea,

Calmed by the stars, the celestial decree.


A yearning for more, an unquenchable fire,

In every uncharted, unfulfilled desire 


Tethered to memories, both joyous and grim,

Seeking release from a life's cavernous brim.


Each echo of freedom, a silent lament,

In the tapestry of fate, a thread yet unspent.


Watcher persists, through the depths of his stare,

Holding onto hope, within the vastness of air.


Part 3


A transformation beckons, destiny's call,

Watcher ascends, surrendering his all.


Becoming stardust, in cosmic embrace,

Merging with galaxies, finding his 


He explodes into light, a celestial dance,

A constellation born, in cosmic expanse.


No longer confined by earthly despair,

Watcher now shines in the cosmic affair.


A star among stars, his essence unfurled,

Now the universe, his infinite world.
